...late summer. Where the device really shines is as a phone. All the normal functions such as caller ID and the ability to automatically capture incoming numbers are there. The Treo also solves a common mobile phone irritant. You can look up a number during a call, a function absent from conventional mobiles. Dialing is a snap. Just type in the first few letters of a name, up pops the number from your contact list, tap "Enter." Based on the dual-band GSM standard, the Treo works regionwide except in Japan...

...Notably absent from the Crimson attack was Clemente, who had torched the Elis for 18 points last season when the Crimson defeated Yale 70-51 at Lavietes Pavilion. On Friday, the star forward played only 24 minutes, hitting 1-of-7 three pointers while in foul trouble most of the evening. Several close calls went against him and he fouled out with 4:35 left in the second half...
